  2. Horner's method - Wikipedia

    Thus, multiplying by 2 is calculated in base-2 by an arithmetic shift. The factor (21) is a right arithmetic shift, a (0) results in no operation (since 2 0 = 1 is the multiplicative identity element), and a (2 1) results in a left arithmetic shift. The multiplication product can now be quickly calculated using only arithmetic shift ...

  3. Factorization of polynomials over finite fields - Wikipedia

    The polynomial P = x 4 + 1 is irreducible over Q but not over any finite field. On any field extension of F 2, P = (x + 1) 4. On every other finite field, at least one of −1, 2 and −2 is a square, because the product of two non-squares is a square and so we have; If =, then = (+) ().

  4. Galois theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galois_theory

    The Galois group of f(x) modulo 2 is cyclic of order 6, because f(x) modulo 2 factors into polynomials of orders 2 and 3, (x 2 + x + 1)(x 3 + x 2 + 1). f(x) modulo 3 has no linear or quadratic factor, and hence is irreducible. Thus its modulo 3 Galois group contains an element of order 5.

  5. Factorization of polynomials - Wikipedia

    If one of these values is 0, we have a linear factor. If the values are nonzero, we can list the possible factorizations for each. Now, 2 can only factor as 1×2, 2×1, (−1)×(−2), or (−2)×(−1). Therefore, if a second degree integer polynomial factor exists, it must take one of the values p(0) = 1, 2, −1, or −2. and likewise for p(1).

  6. Factorization system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factorization_system

    A weak factorization system (E, M) for a category C consists of two classes of morphisms E and M of C such that: [1] The class E is exactly the class of morphisms having the left lifting property with respect to each morphism in M. The class M is exactly the class of morphisms having the right lifting property with respect to each morphism in E.

  7. Factorization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factorization

    In mathematics, factorization (or factorisation, see English spelling differences) or factoring consists of writing a number or another mathematical object as a product of several factors, usually smaller or simpler objects of the same kind. For example, 3 × 5 is an integer factorization of 15, and (x2)(x + 2) is a polynomial ...

  8. Weierstrass factorization theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weierstrass_factorization...

    It is clear that any finite set {} of points in the complex plane has an associated polynomial = whose zeroes are precisely at the points of that set. The converse is a consequence of the fundamental theorem of algebra: any polynomial function () in the complex plane has a factorization = (), where a is a non-zero constant and {} is the set of zeroes of ().

  9. Polynomial expansion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial_expansion

    In mathematics, an expansion of a product of sums expresses it as a sum of products by using the fact that multiplication distributes over addition. Expansion of a polynomial expression can be obtained by repeatedly replacing subexpressions that multiply two other subexpressions, at least one of which is an addition, by the equivalent sum of products, continuing until the expression becomes a ...
